The Sweethome

byJames FurbushonMay 29, 2013

The Sweethome is a spin-off vertical from the team behind The Wirecutter offering a compendium “great stuff and supplies for your house or apartment.”

Basically, The Wirecutter is now focused on electronics and gadgets, while the Sweethome — edited by Joel Johnson — will handle products for the home, including: kitchen, bath, garage, tools, gardening, etc.

What I love is that each has become the modern day equivalent of Consumer Reports. Whenever I need to buy something I tend to check out the Wirecutter first and more often than not go with their recommended product. So far, based on the products I own around the home, Sweethome will fill the same role for me.
